This watchdog blog, by journalist Norman Oder, offers analysis, commentary, and reportage about the $4.9B project to build the Barclays Center arena and 15-16 towers at a crucial site in Brooklyn. Dubbed Atlantic Yards by developer Forest City Ratner in 2003, it was rebranded Pacific Park Brooklyn in 2014 after the Chinese government-owned Greenland Group bought a 70% stake going forward. As of 2018, after the arena and four towers were built, Greenland owns 95% of future construction.

The Barclays Center has released its June 2018 Community Calendar. It contains seven publicly ticketed events, including six concerts and the NBA draft, plus one private event and four graduations.

While the graduations are not specified, a web search turns up Medgar Evers College (June 4), New York City Technical College (June 4), LaGuardia Community College (June 5), and Brooklyn Technical High School (June 25).

June is typically fairly slow. That compares with eight publicly ticketed events in June 2017 (below), plus an unspecified number of nonticketed events.
